Beaver Brook Falls, the Great North Woods

"Why did you film the waterfall for five minutes?", my daughters asked. I read them "Frederick" by Leo Lionni, about the mouse who stored summer sunshine and colors for his family in winter. When my crazy schedule gets to me, and my senses are dulled by suburbia, I'll put on this tape, hear the ssshhh of the falls, and smell the Balsam Pines. A mini-retreat to re-focus myself on God. New Age? Hardly. Psalm 19 begins, "The heavens declare the glory of the Lord, and the firmament proclaims His handiwork".

Breathtaking.

I might need to borrow that video when you are through with it. : )
